Fossil energy will become very rare and extremely expensive a long time before it runs out. Almost all scientists and geologists will agree with
this reality. There is now an inherent need to find alternative ways to transport people and goods, and to grow food and heat homes.

There are many
proposed solutions, but most are short term fixes and any longer term
proposals are uncertain and unpredictable both in planning
and result. None can be regarded as cheap and abundant like oil used to
be.

Certainly, energy conservation plays a key role. Prolong
finite fossil fuels, hence buying time to develop alternative energy
solutions. This
can be achieved by increasing fuel taxes, banning recreational vehicles
and the like. The number of trucks can be reduced in favor of rail,
and carpooling, public transportation and bicycles can be promoted and
then
enforced.

Wind, solar and tidal power can be used in the generation of electricity that is dependent on the unpredictable weather. Appliances designed to be more energy efficient would help. The internet that replaces the 'shopping' experience. New cars could run from 3-cylinder diesel engines or even hybrid and electric motors. Inroads could be made with electric and liquefied methane or hydrogen combination to replace oil, if it can be made as a compact energy source economically which ofcourse presently it is not and may depend energy from oil to produce it.

Of course, the most talked about answer to the energy crisis is nuclear fusion, the same energy that powers our sun. The "fusion replaces fission" answer. There are several types of fusion reactions, most resulting in a highly
dangerous radioactive waste, but the safest relies on helium 3 which
is abundant on the Moon, but not on the Earth.

Another answer is to restrict the World's population.
Though it may sound somewhat draconian, it is a real prospect. The planet
simply cannot sustain 6 billion people with its current energy requirements
versus availability of resources.

But is there a better way? Is there a cleaner way? Is there a more economical way? The answer is yes!

Professor John Searl has an alternate energy solution that is both economical to produce and clean for the environment.

Furthermore, it is nothing less than a long term solution to our global energy crisis - it is called the "Searl Effect Generator" (SEG).
